Abstract
ABSTRACTFor that past 40 years, hundreds of articles have been published in the major journals that examine leisure, recreation, and parks in North America, for example, the Journal of Leisure Research, Leisure Sciences, and Journal of Recreation and Park Administration. Yet, we are no closer to influencing policy, shifting public opinion, or persuading ourselves and each other that the idea of leisure is something that we should value, embrace, and fight for in terms of a shorter work week and, for that matter, a shorter work life. What is our professional commitment to promoting leisure, advocating for shorter work weeks and for mandatory vacation time? This article explores issues related to leisure, resistance and the hegemony of work.
